I have been fly fishing central oregon for years now and the gunslinger is one of my few go-to flies. The shape, profile, and color is a great imitation of almost any mayfly. I have literally caught hundreds trout on this and it was the fly I caught my personal best on, a 32 inch brown trout on the upper Deschutes. When fishing new waters or not having luck on "matching the hatch" this is one of the first flies I switch to. This is the only place I have seen any reference to these flies so they are unique. There have been a few times that I have shown up a professional guide fishing by me and embarrassing them in front of their customers and when they asked me what I was using, I told them a gunslinger.

OK, I HAVE TO BRAG ON THIS FLY BECAUSE IT CATCHES ME FISH ON WHAT EVER RIVER I GO TO. WHEN NOTHING ELSE SEEMS TO TRIGGER A BITE, THIS FLY JUST WORKS. YOU WILL SEE WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT IF YOU TRY IT. ITS A GEM AND IT JUSTS WORKS, PERIOD!!!!!

OK, I must brag on this fly because this catches me fish on any river. No matter where i go it does the job when nothing else seems to trigger a bite. Try it and you will see what im talking about. Its a jem and it just works, period!!!!!!
